Chapter 0436 Massacre

After a long month of waiting, the expected shoe finally landed.

The service contract signed by Grimm and the Salupo family lasted for a hundred years. Now it has been ten years. It can be said that he has passed the protection period of new wizards and has become a formal wizard of the family. Therefore, the family's mandatory tasks have come one after another.

As Meryl revealed before, Grimm will be sent to Gilneas City, which is closest to the conflict area. There is an iron ring excavation site belonging to the Salupo family, which is famous for producing high-quality moonstone and topaz.

Of course, there is also a secondary resource point of the family nearby, which is also a target that the garrison wizard needs to take care of.

According to the past rules, Grimm, as a garrison wizard sent by the family, needs to maintain the basic security of these two areas. Their daily production is usually handled by another group of specialized quasi-mages and senior apprentices, and Grimm does not need to stay there.

However, when the resource points and mines have problems that the guarding power cannot solve, Grimm, the garrison wizard, must come forward to expel or kill those wizard-level enemies that threaten resource collection.

So usually, Grimm can stay in the prosperous and bustling city of Gilneas and spend his days leisurely. The apprentice guard will solve the general minor troubles by himself, and only when facing wizard-level enemies will he be sent to ask him to take charge.

So this kind of garrison mission can almost be regarded as a good job except that it is not very free.

After all, near the resource points, those local managers and local nobles must be trying to please garrison wizards like Grimm in various ways. As long as he is willing, there will be no problem with drinking and feasting every day. And every certain period of time, the managers of several resource points and mines will definitely have additional resources to offer, which is a tacit understanding, so it is also a basic benefit for garrison wizards.

But these are things in peacetime, and the current situation is obviously different.

Some time ago, the apprentice leader of the Iron Ring Excavation Site, a quasi-witch named Thacker, had a conflict with a quasi-witch from the nearby Yashi family while he was out collecting resources, and "accidentally" killed the other party.

So, this instantly detonated the deep contradiction between the Salupo family and the Yashi family!

Of course, in private, the top leaders of the Salupo family and the Yashi family must have begun to contact secretly, arguing about topics such as "revenge" and "compensation". But with Sanaza's hot temper, how could she easily agree to the other party's conditions, hand over Thacker, and compensate for resources.

So when the two sides quarreled endlessly, the frontier of this family became a powder keg, and it was very likely to become the target of the other party's revenge.

Although the killing between wizards is strictly prohibited in the Sanditalin area, if there is a perfect excuse, then the bigwigs of the Wizard Association will turn a blind eye and not participate in the "friction" between the two wizard families.

In view of the tense situation near Gilneas City, a strong combat wizard was urgently needed, so Grimm, the "thorn", was naturally sent there.

The Salupo family only gave Grimm twenty days to prepare.

If Grimm did not appear in Gilneas City after more than twenty days, Lord Fugen, the second-level wizard in charge of the Salupo family, would have a "heart-to-heart talk" with him.

As for the safety of Grimm's own wizard tower, no one has ever mentioned it.

The Salupo family's territory is so large, but he did not choose to plant his own wizard tower in a wild black forest, which obviously caused dissatisfaction among the family's top leaders. And this family's mandatory mission is a warning to him.

Normal wizards, when facing family mandatory missions, will have two or three different choices, and then freely choose one according to their preferences and time.

Usually this kind of garrison mission takes two years at a time, and he can arrange and act on his own in the remaining three years until the five-year period expires before the next round.

Unfortunately, this time it was a mandatory task assigned to Grimm by Lord Sanaza himself, so even if he was dissatisfied, Grimm didn't have the courage to argue with the other party.

After receiving the family's task documents, Grimm could only try his best to arrange the internal affairs of the Wu Tower.

This time he might be away for a long time, and the security work around the Wu Tower and the internal development need to be arranged one by one. And before leaving, he needs to clean up those "thorns" that will pose a threat to the Wu Tower!

…………

The giant elephant is a powerful monster with a strong sense of territory.

Once the territory is demarcated, they will keep wandering in it. Any powerful creature that enters their territory will be attacked crazily by the giant elephants.

In contrast, those weak creatures will not arouse their vigilance and attack.

So in the living area of ​​the giant elephants, you can't find other monsters!

In the black forest shrouded in the night, the dense giant trees are connected into a sea.

Each giant tree is tens of meters high, with dense branches and leaves covering the sky and the ground. It is almost impossible to see anything on the ground when flying over the sky.

According to the information provided by Angujia, Grimm rode on the back of the scorpion lion leader and quickly slid along the treetops to the area where the giant elephants lived under the cover of the huge night.

Due to the cover of the giant tree canopy, even with Grimm's vision and perception, it is difficult to peek into the secrets under the dense branches and leaves. However, hovering above the dark forest, Grimm can always catch the abnormal shaking of some tree canopies with his keen vision.

The night wind whistled by his side.

The scorpion lion leader spread out his wide bat wings, and with the help of the wind, he easily shuttled through the sky above the forest.

Grimm looked around and soon found several abnormalities in the undulating black forest. It seemed that there was a giant beast passing through the forest, and the giant trees that were hit could not help shaking.

Grimm gently patted the scorpion lion leader under him, and the other party immediately understood and turned his body, spread his wings and glided towards there.

When approaching there, the scorpion lion leader folded his bat wings, leaned down slightly, and used his tough body to knock away the dense branches and leaves that blocked the way, and plunged into the dark forest.

When rushing into the forest, the scorpion lion leader spread his bat wings again, and glided between the tall ancient trees with agile movements. Every now and then, he would stop on a thick branch and scan the bizarre forest world with sharp eyes.

Dong...

A giant elephant as tall as a hill slowly patrolled the territory. With its huge body, every step it took would make the ground tremble.

Suddenly, its long nose was raised high, and its huge body turned around with incredible agility, and its blood-red eyes stared at the darkness in the distance.

There seemed to be a dangerous atmosphere that disgusted it!

Roar...

The giant elephant raised its thick front legs and stomped heavily on the ground under its feet. Its thick trunk swung left and right, hitting several large trees around it and making them tremble. The two fangs that curved forward in a huge arc scraped against the giant tree, causing wood chips to fly and the bark to peel off, revealing the white wood stubble underneath.

As a monster that likes to defend its territory, the giant elephant raised its nose and roared intimidatingly to demonstrate to the other party. If the creatures in the dark leave automatically, it will pretend not to see it and continue to patrol the territory.

After all, this terrible intuition of danger made it understand that the guy it met today was not someone who could be provoked casually. However, its "good intentions" were obviously not understood by anyone. The creature in the dark not only did not leave, but walked towards it.

Boom boom boom...

Without any hesitation, the blood-soaked giant elephant immediately launched a death charge, slightly bent down, buried his head, pointed his two sharp fangs at the other party, and rushed towards a humanoid creature walking out of the darkness with rumbling heavy steps.

The other party was a human, wearing a black robe, with strong elemental fluctuations rippling in his body.

This made it recognize at the first time that it was a human wizard!

Although when migrating here, the giant elephant leader had already learned that a wizard tower of human wizards had appeared nearby. But with the stubborn idea of ​​"well water does not interfere with river water", the giant elephant leader still chose to settle his home here.

During this period of time, many monsters in the surrounding area have come to win it over, but the giant elephant leader strictly restrains his subordinates and does not allow them to easily step out of the territory. Unfortunately, its efforts were in vain. It didn't go looking for trouble with human wizards, but human wizards went looking for it!

With a heart full of anger and bloodthirsty rage, the giant elephant leader was like a moving meat mountain, knocking over two or three big trees that were in the way, and rushed towards Grimm with an unstoppable and brave attitude.

Grimm, covered in a black robe, raised his head, and two dazzling red lights shone under the deep shadow of the hood. He leaned on the wizard's staff with his left hand and stretched out his right hand. A stream of bright red terrifying flames shot out from his palm, crossed a distance of 30 meters, and scraped the exposed skull of the giant elephant leader head-on.

Sizzle...

The strange sound of crazy burning flesh and blood sounded.

A thin protective force field appeared around the giant elephant leader, which simply blocked the flames in Grimm's hand, and then its huge body rushed through the place where Grimm was hiding like a runaway train.

A huge flame rose.

Grimm's 'thin' body disappeared under the giant elephant leader's thick iron hoof, and when he appeared again, he stood proudly on the other's broad back.

A huge lava fireball continued to gather in his palm.

When the fire element in it was so rich that even he could not continue to control it, Grimm shook his wrist and threw it hard at the head of the giant elephant leader, and he disappeared in the flames again.

Bang...

A shocking explosion.

A terrifying flame shock wave and a sky-high fire wave erupted in the silent black forest.

In the blink of an eye, the huge space of 20 to 30 meters in radius was engulfed by the raging sea of ​​fire! chapter;
